[Ollie - understand lyrics]
Wondering what they all are
Some days they feeling so close
But others they feeling so far
Kinda like things in my life
And love that I hold in my heart
Whatever fulfilling your dreams
Has power to tear you apart
'Cause everything come with a cost
Some people whose focus get lost
The wisdom inside of these flows
Is also admitting my flaws
See, I ain't too proud to
Say I'm not perfect
I live with a lot of these thoughts
I hate what's inside of my head, but
I can't make it stop
It's why I like taking these chances
Moments where growth advances
We stare at the moon, a canvas
While writing these poems and stanzas
Yo, I make my bed, I sleep on the floor
I guess I've been searching for answers
'Cause shit don't reflect what's
At my core i'm tryna pick at my standards
I do all the things that I should
Regretting some others I could
I'm finally taking a stand
The difference what make you a man
Easier said than done, I know
When things are not going as planned
But I do my best with weight on my chest
Some people just won't understand
They won't understand
Some people just won't understand
Yeah i kinda like being alone
The days I don't look at my phone
'Cause all I ever feel is anxious
'Round some people I don't know
They talk about this, they gossip 'bout that
But I rather be back at home
Where I can perfect my craft
And build out a family life on my own
It's evident nothing is fair
So I hold my memories with care
'Cause no one know day-time or hour
And that's about all that I fear
Yeah, they say the eyes the
Window inside of the soul
So look at mine clear
And tell me exactly, what do you see?
'Cause I see a future right here
I'm sorry, that's deep-personal
I change a lot-versatile
Tell me what's love if
It's not compassionately
Forgiving and merciful
I try and reap what I sow
And preach what I know
And give back to people who need it the most
Even on Mondays and when I feel down
'Cause talking is one thing, but actions
They show so, I'm doing whatever I can
To put out the flames I fanned
Where in the past, I ran
Easier said than done, I know
When things are not going as planned
But I do my best with weight on my chest
Some people just won't understand
They won't understand
